Agenda Trabzon Railway at TSIAD; Trabzon Industrialists and Business People Association's weekly board meeting of Trabzon Erzincan Railway Platform member, Ortahisar and Metropolitan Municipality Council member Mustafa Yaylalı attended.

TSRI President Sirri Eren said, biri One of the duties of non-governmental organizations is to create public opinion on issues concerning the city and to contribute to the vision of the city. We organized this meeting in order to exchange information about the railway project which we consider very important in the future of our city and to get information about the subject and the point we have come from, Mustafa Yaylalı, a member of the Railway Platform, who has been voicing this issue since 2010.

I would like to thank the previous term president of the Chamber of Civil Engineers, Mr. Yaylalı, for his participation in our board meeting. Investment Island, the Southern Ring Road, and the railway are the projects that we need to constantly exchange ideas for in order to draw the future vision of our city. Again, for our city, subjects such as tourism, light rail system, transportation plan are the subjects that should be operated by a common mind and it will be very beneficial to think together. As TSIAD, we will continue the meetings where our members will be familiar with the problems of Trabzon. In this way, everyone will contribute to the solution of problems on various platforms”.

Mustafa Yaylalı, a member of Railway Platform who made a presentation to the board of directors of Trabzon-Erzincan about TSIAD, stated that for the first time a freight train departed from China and went to Prague by using Marmaray. “The world is changing. The routes in world trade are being reconstructed. Today China is now planning to reach the Baltic countries.

In this plan, Trabzon and Kherson stand out as very important ports. It is obvious that the shortest distance to the Black Sea, which will introduce the main train line passing through Erzincan Erbaş into this plan, is the port of Trabzon with 230 km. Such a movement will revive the port of Trabzon as well as a source for new lines and plans with Russia. It is necessary to look at the event through freight transport. Samsun Sarp railway is considered as passenger transportation and high speed train. However, our priority should be to connect to the world market passing by us, not by passenger, but by cargo. By rail, Trabzon can become a center again. We have to connect to Erzincan and thus connect to the biggest trade line in the world and therefore directly to the world.

By supporting this line with Diyarbakır, GAP products will be accessed to the northern markets. Erzincan Railway is in an important position connecting all axles. Our cities should be planned according to this line and trade volume, and connections should be established with the northern ports of the Black Sea via this large trade line. Arsin Investment Island, which will be a high-tech industrial zone, should be laid on the table by establishing a relationship with the size of the production transfer to the world and the line we are talking about. When we establish this vision, neighboring provinces will benefit from this situation, and Rize, Hopa, Batumi railway will be more economical. ” said.

TSİAD President Sırrı Eren thanked Mustafa Yaylalı, a member of Trabzon – Erzincan Railway platform, for his detailed presentation. The meeting ended after the question and answer session. – xnumxsaat
